Morel has been called up. Velazquez has been optioned. There really is no spot for him right now with the OF basically set.

It was a matter of time. I really hope that 3B will be the hot spot and see what he brings in this 2nd stint.

Tucker Barnhart out on a 3-2 pitch 4 inches inside with 2 on and one out.

Tucker Barnhart line drive on the line called foul by the first base ump who was not looking at the ball when he made the call.

Nootbaar walks on a ball in the zone and has scored the go ahead run.

Cubs lose a run when Hoerner pulls a hammy rounding 2nd and can't score.

Announcers have mentioned Willson Contreras 700 times.

Jesus, Cubs, win this horse shit game.

The Cub pitchers handled every Cards hitter tonight except Contreras.

Cubs looking for a spark for their dead in the water offense. We're beginning to see the problem with signing guys like Hosmer and Mancini....I would rather have kept Vally up,but he goes down because Hosmer and Mancini are clogging up the roster.

It may be May 9th, but at the end of the year, this head to head game will matter.

And Eric Hosmer is getting at bats!

WTF?

I didn't get as excited about Morel as most, as it was short-term last year and likely overblown because expectations were not high. But he continues to get 'er done, and I am happy to see it. Kudos to him. Keep it up!

Serious question - since joining the Cubs, has Suzuki had a meaningful hit?

.250, 9 RBI, 675 OPS. Last year was decidedly "meh" when he was able to play.

Girardi said it takes a long time to come back from an oblique injury and now is basically Suzuki's spring training. We can only hope that is true.

Yeah, I guess that’s fair. Forgot it was oblique.
